Are they a lot cheaper than actual LEOs? I presumed that going rates would be similar. And I guess the "spicier" question is, are they cheaper than a bus operator?

This isn't exactly a direct source, but it's listing the hourly pay at 25.26$.

You wouldn't even need them to ride every single bus, just enough to deter weird behavior.

Even if hypothetically they cost as much as a real bus driver, this would be much safer. A bus driver doing overtime and possibly texting people isn't too hard to beat.

LA metro has a stage below them called "ambassadors" who walk around with ipads, presumably to help people navigate the system and also call for maintenance or security should there be a need. From what I can gleam they are paid $25/hr.

From what I know of LA metro, most people ignore the ambassadors.

Well that would be hard to do considering they will call the police on you should it merit it.
